Fang Deyong calmed down a little after hearing what Lin Congyun said, "Mom, you are right."

"By the way, before that, we need to find your little sister and Aunt Bai first and make preparations."

When Zeng Xiaoyu heard Lin Congyun's words, she thought of something and said, "Mom, Mr. Zheng separated from us halfway."

Why did Zheng Qianzhi, who was so shameless as to want to follow us to Bianyun Pass, leave halfway?

"Did he tell me why when he left?"

Zeng Xiaoyu shook her head. "He left in a hurry and didn't say anything."

When Lin Congyun heard Zeng Xiaoyu say this, he couldn't help but frown.

However, the focus now is not on him, but on how to find Fang Deyu, Nanny Bai and others. He also doesn't know if there is any news from Huang Yang.

The sky gradually turned white and the village gradually woke up in the morning light.

Lin Congyun stood in front of the thatched hut, gazing into the distance, his heart was surging.

She looked at the faint glow in the sky and felt a sense of urgency rising in her heart.

"Mom, the conditions in the village are limited. Let's drink some porridge first." Zeng Xiaoyu came over holding a broken bowl.

Lin Congyun came back to his senses and pushed the bowl back, "I'm not hungry, you guys eat first!"

Zeng Xiaoyu insisted: "Mom, you have been guarding us all night. Even if you are not hungry, you should have a drink."

Lin Congyun looked at Zeng Xiaoyu and couldn't help feeling moved.

She took the bowl from Zeng Xiaoyu, drank a few sips, and then handed it to Fang Deyong, "Third brother, you drink some too."

Fang Deyong took the bowl and drank while saying, "Mom, Qingzi just came over and said that the person who disappeared with him in the deep forest is not in this village."

"If not here, then where could it be?" Lin Congyun frowned again, "Could there be another village in this deep forest?"

"How about asking Qingzi and the others to find out?"

Lin Congyun nodded and said, "We'll go there together later."

After Fang Deyong finished his porridge, he followed Lin Congyun to the house of the old woman he had met yesterday.

Just then the old woman came out, and Lin Congyun stepped forward and said, "Old sister, I really want to thank you for taking in my daughter-in-law and the others these days.

The old woman smiled and said, "It's just a small favor, not worth mentioning. By the way, my name is Niu Qigu, you can just call me Qigu."

"Okay, Seventh Aunt." Lin Congyun smiled. "In order to look for them, the family came to the deep forest the day before yesterday, but they got lost inside, and only one person managed to walk out."

When Niu Qigu heard what Lin Congyun said, she said, "I'll ask the villagers to go out and help you look for it."

"Thank you so much, Seventh Aunt." Lin Congyun said gratefully.

Niu Qigu smiled and said, "It's nothing. Wait for me. I'll let Niu Daya and the others go over."

Niu Qigu called Niu Daya and gave some instructions. When she was about to ask a few more people to help look for it, she suddenly turned around and looked at Lin Congyun, "Old lady, how did you get to our village?"

Lin Congyun was silent for a moment, then recounted what had happened.

"So, there is another way out?"

"From what Aunt Qi said, I don't know the passage on the other side of the valley."

Niu Qigu shook her head and said, "To be honest, I found this place by accident."

At this time, Niu Qigu looked up into the distance. It was a lush forest. The sunlight shone through the gaps between the leaves, casting mottled shadows, as if time had slowed down here.

Then she spoke slowly, with a hint of pain in her voice: "Half a year ago, that bully took away all the men in the village, leaving only the old, weak, women and children like us in the village. But within two days, that group of people came again, saying that they were bringing food and clothes for us to send over. But halfway through the journey..."

At this point, Niu Qigu choked up, wiped the tears from her eyes, and continued, "Halfway through the journey, they took away all our supplies. I also heard them say that they would sell the young women in the village to those dirty places. How could we just stand by and watch, so..."

At this point, Niu Qigu choked up again, and Lin Congyun quickly comforted her: "Qigu, this matter has passed, don't think too much about it."

Niu Qigu nodded and laughed bitterly: "At that time, there were probably more than a hundred women in our village, but now, there are not many alive."

The villagers that Lin Congyun saw last night seemed to be less than fifty people.

Niu Qigu continued, "We had no choice but to take the remaining women in the village and flee into the deep forest, and then came to this place now."

Hearing this, Lin Congyun was a little confused. Logically speaking, the location of this village should not be found by ordinary people. How could a group of women find this place?

Niu Qigu seemed to see through Lin Congyun's confusion and said, "There is a child in our village who once followed his mother into the mountains to collect herbs. When he got here, he got lost and didn't get out until two days later. Moreover, the child's mother knows a little bit of the Eight Diagrams technique, otherwise she would have really gotten lost and couldn't get out."

No wonder this village is so hidden, it seems that there must be some kind of formation set up outside.

Moreover, there are so many mechanisms in the passage on the other side of the valley, so this place should have been created by a master, but why was this place created?

"Mom, what are you thinking about?"

Fang Deyong's voice brought Lin Congyun back to his senses. "Nothing, I just thought this place was magical."

After Lin Congyun finished speaking, he thought about what Niu Qigu had said, and suddenly thought of something else. He quickly asked, "Qigu, are you from Nanyuan Village?"

Niu Qigu was a little surprised at first, then nodded, "Yes, we are from Nanyuan Village. I didn't expect that you, old lady, also know our village!"

"I found my eldest daughter-in-law in your Nanyuan Village." Lin Congyun said truthfully.

"Found it in our village?" Niu Qigu was even more surprised.

"At that time, we walked around your village and thought it was very strange. Why was the village so empty? There was no one there, not even food or clothes. Just now, after hearing what Aunt Qi said, I finally understood what was going on."

After hearing this, Niu Qigu sighed: "That bully is so abominable. Our beautiful home is just left there empty."

"Seventh Aunt, is it convenient for you to live in this deep forest?" Seeing that Niu Qigu was a little excited, Lin Congyun changed the subject and asked.

Lin Congyun's words seemed to have touched the pain in Niu Qigu's heart. She sighed, with deep helplessness in her eyes.
